We used the shelter for a large family gathering and it was great for our needs with seating and food prep areas. Nothing special, but perfectly adequate. The playground area was large and fun for all ages of kids who like playgrounds! The setting is beautiful and peaceful - the lake, the trees, etc., not many people or much noise. We left thinking we would love to camp overnight there sometime…until awhile later when some of us were covered in chigger bites!! If you go, remember bug spray I guess!! Rookie mistake…
